2013 NBA Draft: Philly Selects Michael Carter-Williams With No. 11 Pick

11. Philadelphia: Michael Carter-Williams – Syracuse
6-6, PG
21 years old, Sophomore

We’re not completely sold on Carter-Williams. He isn’t a shooter, and will struggle to defend some of the super athletic point guards. Think about it — even though he’s 6-6, do you really think he’ll be able to push around people like Rose and Westbrook? No way.

But after apparently trading Jrue Holiday, the Sixers needed a replacement. It’ll be interesting to watch this. Philly is SUPER long on the perimeter between this guy and their wing players. Just having that length around automatically makes you a better defensive team.

Was this the right move?
